Racing drivers should be allowed to race.... Neither was going to back down and that was why it happened.
Hamilton maybe was marginally more at fault, but neither was blameless. It certainly wasn't like Senna taking Prost out in 1990 at Suzuka, or Schumacher ramming Villeneuve in 1997 at Jerez
We didn't have any of this controversy when Gilles and Rene were banging wheels at Dijon in 1979.... admittedly at lower speed, but sadly both would probably have had penalties and driver points for that today!
I've seen Max do some dodgy manoeuvres over the years (Spa stuffing it up the inside of the 1st corner, Spa defence on Kimi, Hungary hitting Daniel, Mexico ramming Seb etc) but that totally focused, never back down attitude is what makes these drivers successful (and exciting!). Let's be fair, they will all get the elbows out when pressured 😂
As for the racist abuse Lewis has faced, I find that absolutely abhorrent as was the same abuse for the three England penalty takers. That is such a sad reflection of a part of our society 😢
